Das Prinzip eines Investmentfond [Bildquelle: Most mutual funds are open-end funds. This means that at the end of every day, the investment management company sponsoring the fund issues new shares to investors and buys back shares from investors wishing to leave the fund. A mutual fund can also be a closed-end fund. The sponsor of a closed-end fund registers and issues a fixed number of shares at the initial offering, similar to a common stock.

Investors then can buy or sell these shares through a stock exchange. The sponsor does not redeem or issue shares after a closed-end fund is launched, so the investor must trade them through a broker. An innovation, the exchange traded fund ETF combines characteristics of both open and closed end mutual funds.

An ETF usually tracks a stock index, like an index fund, but can be redeemed on demand for its underlying holdings, eliminating the discounts and premiums that are common with closed-end funds and forcing prices to remain very close to the net asset value NAV. ETFs are traded throughout the day on a stock exchange, just like closed-end funds. The net asset value , or NAV, is a fund's value of its holdings, usually expressed as a per-share amount.

For most funds, the NAV is determined daily, after the close of trading on some specified financial exchange, but some funds update their NAV multiple times during the trading day. Closed-end funds may trade at a higher or lower price than their NAV; this is known as a premium or discount , respectively. If a fund is divided into multiple classes of shares, each class will typically have its own NAV, reflecting differences in fees and expenses paid by the different classes.

Some mutual funds own securities which are not regularly traded on any formal exchange. These may be shares in very small or bankrupt companies; they may be derivatives; or they may be private investments in unregistered financial instruments such as stock in a non-public company. In the absence of a public market for these securities, it is the responsibility of the fund manager to form an estimate of their value when computing the NAV.

How much of a fund's assets may be invested in such securities is stated in the fund's prospectus. Many mutual funds divide their assets up among multiple classes of shares. All of the assets of each class are effectively pooled for the purposes of investment management, but classes typically differ in the fees and expenses paid out of the fund's assets.

These differences are supposed to reflect different costs involved in servicing investors in various classes; for example, one class may be sold through brokers with a front-end load, and another class may be sold direct to the public with no load but a "12b-1 fee" included in the class's expenses. In some cases, by aggregating regular investments by many individuals, a retirement plan such as a k plan may qualify to purchase "institutional" shares and gain the benefit of their typically-lower expense ratios even though no members of the plan would qualify individually.

Turnover is a measure of the amount of securities that are bought and sold, usually in a year, and usually expressed as a percentage of net asset value. It shows how actively managed the fund is. A caveat is that this value is sometimes calculated as the value of all transactions buying, selling divided by 2 ; i. This makes the turnover look half as high as would be according to the standard measure. Turnover generally has tax consequences for a fund, which are passed through to investors.

In particular, when selling an investment from its portfolio, a fund may realize a capital gain, which will ultimately be distributed to investors as taxable income. The very process of buying and selling securities also has its own costs, such as brokerage commissions, which are borne by the fund's shareholders.

Dalbar found that the average stock fund returned 14 percent; during that same period, the typical mutual fund investor had a 5.

A front-end load or sales charge is a commission paid to a broker by a mutual fund when shares are purchased, taken as a percentage of funds invested. The value of the investment is reduced by the amount of the load. Some funds have a deferred sales charge or back-end load which is paid to the broker out of the proceeds when shares are redeemed.

This is distinct from a redemption fee , which is also paid out of proceeds, but is kept by the fund. Many funds charge redemption fees when shares are sold a short time after they are purchased, to discourage investors from market timing. Load funds are sold through financial intermediaries such as brokers, financial planners, and other types of registered representatives who charge a commission for their services. It is possible to buy many mutual funds directly from the fund sponsor, without paying a sales charge. These are called no-load funds.

Some discount brokers will sell no-load funds, sometimes for a flat transaction fee or even no fee at all. This does not necessarily mean that the broker is not compensated for the transaction; in such cases, the fund may pay brokers' commissions out of "distribution and marketing" expenses rather than a specific sales charge.

Mutual funds can invest in many different kinds of securities. The most common are cash, stock, and bonds, but there are hundreds of sub-categories. Stock funds, for instance, can invest primarily in the shares of a particular industry, such as high technology or utilities. These are known as sector funds. Bond funds can vary according to risk high yield or junk bonds, investment-grade corporate bonds , type of issuers government agencies, corporations, or municipalities , or maturity of the bonds short or long term. Both stock and bond funds can invest in primarily US securities domestic funds , both US and foreign securities global funds , or primarily foreign securities international funds.

By law, mutual funds cannot invest in commodities and their derivatives or in real estate. However, there do exist real estate investment trusts, or REITs, which invest solely in real estate or mortgages, and mutual funds are allowed to hold shares in REITs. Likewise, another type of fund, hedge funds, which are restricted to the wealthy, are allowed to invest in real estate as well as sell short and certain other practices which mutual funds may not do A mutual fund may restrict itself in other ways. These restrictions, permissions, and policies are found in the prospectus, which every open-end mutual fund must make available to a potential investor before accepting his or her money.

Most mutual funds' investment portfolios are continually adjusted under the supervision of a professional manager, who forecasts the future performance of investments appropriate for the fund and chooses the ones which he or she believes will most closely match the fund's stated investment objective. This is called active management, in contrast to indexing, in which a fund's assets are managed to closely approximate the performance of a particular published index.

Because the composition of an index changes less frequently than the condition of the market, an index fund manager makes fewer trades, on average, than does an active fund manager. For this reason, index funds generally have lower expenses than actively-managed funds, and typically incur fewer capital gains which must be passed on to shareholders.

The majority of actively managed funds usually only match the performance of the index fund, but since they have higher costs they then underperform the index funds. For this reason, many advisors strongly suggest avoiding mutual funds. Mutual funds are corporations under US law, but they are subject to a special set of regulatory, accounting, and tax rules. Unlike most other types of corporations, they are not taxed on their income as long as they distribute substantially all of it to their shareholders.

Also, the type of income they earn is often unchanged as it passes through to the shareholders. Mutual fund distributions of tax-free municipal bond income are also tax-free to the shareholder. Taxable distributions can either be ordinary income or capital gains, depending on how the fund earned it. Picking a mutual fund from among the thousands offered is not easy. The following is just a rough guide, with some common pitfalls. In September , the US mutual fund industry was beset by a scandal in which major fund companies permitted and facilitated "late trading" and "market timing".

In the United Kingdom the term "mutual fund" may be confusing due to the existence of building societies and mutual life companies which in law are owned by their members and which have no share holders to distribute profits to and consequently are referred to as "mutuals". Collectively managed funds are referred to by type, and the following are the principal ones are available:.

Tax favoured products such as Pensions or Individual Savings Accounts may include any of the above, although separate Pension funds and subject to involved differences Life Insurance funds exist with their own legislative control and tax treatment. Thus it is felt by these critics that these mutual funds are useless, or more specifically, since any particular fund has a greater chance to underperform, it is better to invest in index mutual funds, or other forms of investments such as index funds. There is also other criticisms levied against mutual funds as a consequence of the first criticism.

One critique covers the concept of the sales load, an upfront or deferred fee as high as 8. Firstly, some critics do not believe that this should be charged on a percentage basis instead of a flat fee basis. Secondly this payment for advice and other services seems dubious to these critics because with so many mutual funds underperforming, but yet visibly attracting money, the advice given seemingly would be bad advice. Mutual funds are also seen by some to have a systemic conflict of interest with regards to their size. Fund companies typically make money by charging a management fee of anywhere between 0.

von Margarete Payer

Although theoretically this could incent them to cause the fund to perform well, since a well performing fund would caused the amount invested in the fund to rise and thus increasing the fee earned, it also could incent the fund to focus on attracting more and more new investors, as the new investors adding money to the fund would also cause the assets of the fund to increase.

Many investors like Warren Buffet believe however that the larger the pool of money one works with, the harder it is to invest. Thus the harder it becomes for the mutual fund to perform well. Thus a fund company can be focused on attracting new customers, hurting its existing customer's performance. A great deal of the funds costs are flat and fixed costs, such as the salary for the manager.

Thus it is economically more beneficial to the fund to try and allow it to grow as large as possible, instead of closing it to new investors and starting a new fund. Other practices of mutual funds have been critized from time to time, such as funds allowing market timing. More recent criticisms have focused on the fund managers accept extravegant gifts such as a jetsetting bachelor party with midget entertainment in exchange for trading stocks through certain investment banks, who presumably overcharge the fund compared to what another, non gifting investment bank would charge.

So spekulieren Hedge Funds [Bildquelle: The concept of a "hedge fund" is relatively simple. The hedge fund manager is the general partner and the investors are the limited partners. The funds are pooled together in the partnership and the general partner hedge fund manager makes all the investment decisions based on the strategy the hedge fund manager has outlined in their offering documents. In return for managing these funds, the hedge fund manager will receive a management fee and an incentive fee. The fee structures of these limited partnerships U.

Offshore hedge funds are usually domiciled in a tax haven and are designed for U. In this structure the manager will also receive a management and incentive fee and will also be invested in the fund as an investment manager. The typical hedge fund asset management firm includes both the domestic U.

This allows hedge fund managers to attract capital from all over the world. Both funds will trade 'Pari-passu' based on the strategy outlined in the offering documents. The industry continues to grow with insitutional investors increasing their allocations to hedge funds as a way to achieve absolute returns. One common hedge strategy is to buy shares of a company that is in the process of a merger and acquisition.

The company's stock has an announced price that it will be worth on the date of the merger, so if the stock is under that value prior to the merger, it is a safe investment to purchase the stock and wait. This strategy can be risky, as there is a possibility that the merger will not go through and the stock will be left at its current value. Frequently, the trader will also sell the stock of the acquiring company in addition to buying the stock of the target. Most of the early hedge funds did just this. They became very popular as a way of seeing gains better than the investment grade bond market, while still having low risk.

However the side effect of this popularity was to dramatically increase the interest in all of the non-standard investment strategies, and soon other funds were being set up with new strategies aimed primarily at high growth. Although there is no hedging in these cases, the term is still used for these funds as well. Hedge funds use alternative strategies such as selling short, arbitrage, trading options or derivatives, using leverage, investing in seemingly undervalued securities, trading commodity and FX contracts, and attempting to take advantage of the spread between current market price and the ultimate purchase price in situations such as mergers.

They can be extremely risky investments as illustrated by the example of Long-Term Capital Management. Investment companies registered with the U. Securities and Exchange Commission SEC are subject to strict limitations on the short-selling and use of leverage that are essential to many hedge fund strategies. For this and other reasons, hedge funds elect to operate as unregistered investment companies. For the funds, the trade off is that they have fewer investors to sell to, but they have few government imposed restrictions on their investment strategies. The presumption is that hedge funds are pursuing more risky strategies, which may or may not be true depending on the fund, and that the ability to invest in these funds should be restricted to wealthier investors who are presumed to be more sophisticated and who have the financial reserves to absorb a possible loss.

A special type of investment vehicle called a fund of funds , a fund which invests in other hedge funds rather than trading assets itself. Hedge funds are similar to private equity funds, such as venture capital funds, in many respects. Both are lightly regulated, private pools of capital that invest in securities and compensate their managers with a share of the fund's profits. Most hedge funds invest in very liquid assets, and permit investors to enter or leave the fund easily.

Private equity funds invest primarily in very illiquid assets, such as early-stage companies and consequentially, investors are "locked in" for the entire term of the fund. Like Hedge funds, mutual funds are pools of investment capital. However, mutual funds are highly regulated by the SEC. One consequence of this regulation is that mutual funds cannot compensate managers based on the performance of the fund, which many believe dilutes the incentive of the fund managers to perform.

As private, lightly regulated partnerships, hedge funds do not have to disclose their activities to third parties. This is in contrast to a fully regulated mutual fund or unit trust which will typically have to meet regulatory requirements for disclosure. The hedge funds are typically domiciled in an offshore jurisdiction, e.

Bermuda, Cayman Islands, Virgin Islands, where regulation of investment funds permits wider powers of investment. Hedge funds have to file accounts and conduct their business in compliance with the less onerous requirements of these offshore centres. Investors in hedge funds enjoy a higher level of disclosure than investors in mutual funds including detailed discussions of risks assumed, significant positions, and investors usually have direct access to the investment advisors of the funds.

This high level of disclosure is not available to non-investors, hence the notion of privacy attached to hedge funds. A byproduct of this privacy and the lack of regulation is that there are no official hedge fund statistics. An industry consulting group, HFR hfr. The combination of privacy and rich investors means that hedge funds are a target for criticism whenever markets move against some group's interests. For example, hedge funds were widely blamed for the speculative run-up in the bond market that preceded the global bond crisis of , although the major players in the bond spree were actually large commercial and investment banks.

Unlike mutual funds, however, hedge funds are not required to register with the SEC.

This means that hedge funds are subject to very few regulatory controls. Because of this lack of regulatory oversight, hedge funds historically have generally been available solely to accredited investors and large institutions. Most hedge funds also have voluntarily restricted investment to wealthy investors through high investment minimums e. Historically, hedge funds have not been subject to regular SEC oversight. In October , the SEC approved a rule change that, if implemented as planned, will require most hedge fund advisers to register with the SEC.

The SEC is adopting a "risk-based approach" to monitoring hedge funds as part of its evolving regulatory regimen for the burgeoning industry, according to the SEC. The SEC has neither the staff nor expertise to comprehensively monitor the estimated 8, U. One of the commissioners, Roel Campos, has said that the SEC is forming internal teams that will identify and evaluate irregular trading patterns or other phenomena that may threaten individual investors, the stability of the industry or the financial world. And even if it did, "the SEC will never have the degree of knowledge or background that you do.

Characteristics In contrast to the main attribute of limited liability of the owners as stakeholders of public and private companies, partners of a general partnership or partnership have unlimited liability. The major characterists of a general partnership include the following: A form of business entity in which 2 or more co-owners engage in business for profit. For the most part, the partners own the business assets together and are personally liable for business debts. In the absence of a partnership agreement, profits are shared equally amongst the partners.

A partnership agreement, however, will usually provide for the manner in which profits and losses are to be shared. Unlimited Personal Liability for Losses: Each Partner is, jointly and severally, personally liable for debts and taxes of the partnership. For example, if the partnership assets are insufficient to satisfy a creditor's claims, the partners' personal assets are subject to attachment and liquidation to pay the business debts. Liability for a partner's debts: Each general partner is deemed the agent of the partnership. Therefore, if that partner was apparently carrying on partnership business, all general partners can he held liable for his dealings with third persons.

Liability for a partner's wrongdoing: Each partner may be held jointly and severally liable for a co-partner's wrongdoing or tortious act e. Technically, a partnership terminates upon the death, disability, or withdrawal of any one partner. However, most partnership agreements provide for these types of events with the share of the departed partner being purchased by the remaining partners in the partnership. In the absence of a partnership agreement, each general partner has an equal right to participate in the management and control of the business.

Disagreements in the ordinary course of partnership business are decided by a majority of the partners. Disagreements of extraordinary matters and amendments to the partnership agreement require the consent of all partners Transferability: Unless otherwise provided in the partnership agreement, no one can become a member of the partnership without the consent of all partners.

However, a partner may assign his share of the profits and losses and right to receive distributions "transferable interest". Further a partner's judgement creditor may obtain an order charging the partner's "transferable interest" to satisfy a judgment.

While a normal partnership also has ownership interest, the difference is that in a partnership, interest can only be transferred to someone else if all the partners agree to it.

The franchise tax can be an amount based on revenue, an amount based on profits, or an amount based on the number of owners. As compared to a sole proprietorship or a partnership, an LLC may have more complicated accounting and tax reporting. It may be more difficult to raise capital for a LLC, as investors may be more comfortable investing funds in the better-understood corporate form with a view toward an eventual initial public offering.

United States Mutual funds can invest in many different kinds of securities. Unless you are in the highest tax bracket, you probably don't need a tax-exempt fund. Match the term of the investment to the time you expect to keep it invested. Money you may need right away for example, if your car breaks down should be in a money market account. Money you will not need until you retire in 30 years or for a newborn's college education should be in longer-term investments, such as stock or bond funds.

Putting money you will need soon in stocks risks having to sell them when the market is low and missing out on the rebound. There are some funds that invest in both stocks and bonds called "balanced funds. More stock is more aggressive, more bond is more conservative. Expenses matter over the long term, and of course, cheaper is usually better.

You can find the expense ratio in the prospectus. Expense ratios are critical in index funds, which seek to match the market. Actively managed funds need to pay the manager, so they usually have a higher expense ratio. Sector funds often make the "best fund" lists you see every year. The problem is that it is usually a different sector each year internet funds, anyone? Also some secters are vulnerable to industry-wide events airlines do come to mind. Avoid making these a large part of your portfolio. Closed-end bond funds often sell at a discount to the value of their holdings.

You can sometimes get extra income by buying these in the market. Hedge fund managers love this trick. This also implies that buying them at the original issue is usually a bad idea, since the price will often drop immediately. Mutual funds often make their distributions near the end of the year.

If you get the money, you will have to pay taxes on it. Check the fund company's website to see when they plan to pay the dividend, and wait until afterwards if it is coming up soon. Read the prospectus, or as much of it as you can stand. It should tell you what these strangers can do with your money, among other vital topics. Check the performance of a fund against its peers with similar investment objectives, and against the index most closely associated with it.

Most people should own some stocks, some bonds, and some cash.

Some of the stocks, at least, should be foreign. You might not get as much diversification as you think if all your stock funds are with the same management company, since there is often a common source of research and recommendations. Too many funds, on the other hand, will give you about the same effect as an index fund, except your expenses will be higher.

Buying individual stocks exposes you to company-specific risks, and if you buy a large number of stocks the commissions may cost more than a fund will.
